Guess people really did follow through on not renewing due to King and Alleva.

i sure as frick did give mine up.

I got an email from LSU today about season tickets, even though I live in Georgia, so season tickets would be impractical for me. I do make one home game each year, but I can just get a single ticket for that game, instead of wasting money on the 6 games I can’t attend.

Also, for everyone wanting to get season tickets without have to donate extra to TAF, now is your opportunity.

South Stadium Club seating is also available.

Supply/price has definitely exceeded demand

when every game is available on tv, and you don't have get there at dawn to park anywhere near the stadium for 40 frickin dollars, and then fight traffic following the game, or halftime whatever your choice might be staying home is the obvious choice. I have season tickets but only because I've had them for so long. when I give them up it will be a lot easier.

There are a couple of reasons why season tickets will never be too difficult to obtain going forward.

1. The fact is there are only a few games worth going to a year. I'm talking about the games where being in the game and experiencing the atmosphere creates a value proposition. The ability to watch all games with incredible production quality due to the various media out there reduces the value gap between paying to attend and watching at home (this is the other half of the games);

2. The access to tickets has never been greater. We can very easily purchase tickets with little logistical headache due to the numerous exchanges available. The TD exchange is a great example.

This leaves very little value proposition to having season tickets when you can a la carte the season. What's left is the value of having "your" tickets, which may be important to some people. For most, its simply a good to purchase with disposable income like any luxury good.

And nobody wants those shi**y upper deck seats. Television is a much better option than those.

Just started following college football?

This has been going on for a long time. LSU has survived much better than others.


College Football’s Growing Problem: Empty Seats - Announced attendance dropped 3.2% in football’s top division last season, but schools’ ticket scans show even fewer fans in stands


NOT LSU:

Only 25,493 ticketed fans were counted at the gates, 36% lower than the announced attendance and about half of the stadium’s capacity. More than 14,000 people who bought tickets or got them free didn’t show up.

College football has an attendance problem. Average announced attendance in football’s top division dropped for the fourth consecutive year last year, declining 7.6% in four years. But schools’ internal records show that the sport’s attendance woes go far beyond that.

Prices are way too high with the TAF payment on top.
